You are f*cking up big time

Dear President Bush,
 
You are fucking up majorly. It is four days after the hurricane and there are people dying on the streets of our free land from lack of food, water and security. And now there are reports that you are sending "mixed signals" to foreign countries!?!? WTF?
 
Greet these nations with open arms. Praise them for their generosity. I have to agree with Mr. Hugo Chavez on this one who said, Mr. Bush is a "Cowboy" and the "king of vacations." You took 390 days of vacation in the five years you've been in office, Mr. Bush!! I don't even think my family combined have taken that many days off from work! Yes, I said Mr. Bush, because a real president would have been in New Orleans the day after Katrina coordinating with the mayor, governor and rescue teams to help the sick, stranded and dying people of our country.
 
The looting, killing and raping is inexcusable, but you take desperate people and put them in a desperate situation, they will take desperate measures. They are fighting for food and water! FOOD AND WATER! A bed, a clean place to sleep, a ticket out! They have no idea what is going on in the outside world. Many of them think they have been left to die, forgotten about.
 
And so today you are going to tour the battered Gulf town. How fucking noble of you. Is New Orleans too black for you? I have to ask that question, cause honestly if that type of disaster happened to a city like Boston, I think the response would be far more proactive and less of this skirting around. If you can get one Bus into that city to get people out, why can't you deliver 1,000 buses. If you can land one helicopter, why can't the biggest military force in the world land 500 helicopters.
 
Are you sure that budget cuts to the Army Corps of Engineers was the smartest thing your administration has chronically done each year, including two key New Orleans' projects?"
 
What have I done to help? I gave cash to the Red Cross because apparently, that is all I can do.
 
And hooray for Craig and the boys of 1818 who are collecting money at their Kegger this weekend. So open up your heart and your wallet you old fart.
 
I'm pissed.

First District police officers have confirmed that 400 families will be coming to stay in the DC Armory from Louisiana/Mississippi. They stressed that their biggest needs at this time are bottled water and anything that would constitute a "care package." For example, toothbrushes, toothpaste, blankets, undergarments, soap, etc.

The First District's information is:

First District Station
415 4th Street, SW
Washington, DC 20024
Phone: (202) 698-0555
Fax: (202) 727-4026

They prefer care packages and supplies over money.

Here too are some additional places to give:
